I unfortunately did not hear about this auction until it was over, so I apologize that I wasn’t able to give you a heads up on it. But “London’s First Dedicated World-Class Motorcycle-Only Auction” happened two weeks ago and they just published results, so you can at least take a look at what the sales prices were now. There was …

If you’re near Philly and love old bikes, the Modern Classics show should be on your calendar.

Well, I’ve got my hands on a Zero FXS for the next few days, so I’ll try to put together a review and a video for y’all. Is there anything you want to know? I’ll keep it mind as I get my thoughts together…so please leave a comment below with your questions!

The Rabbit Hash General Store is a 185 year old landmark in Northern Kentucky, and a regional destination for riders in the area. Unfortunately, it fell victim to a large fire the day before Valentine’s Day and was destroyed. Before the fire, the store had been in ‘continual operation since 1831’, spanning 38 presidents. Now an effort is underway to …

Motorcycle Classics is one of my favorite websites on the vast interwebs, thanks to their desire to preserve classic motorcycling and their classic bike database. You’ve probably seen me link to their site plenty of times for supplemental information on featured bikes. I was pleased to discover recently that they’ve accumulated all of their content in the first 10 years …

Live near Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin? Before you get all cozy for the Super Bowl this Sunday, you may want to head over to Norm’s Hideaway, where some crazy people are going to try to set some Guinness World Records on the adjoining lake – fastest and longest stoppie on ice, and fastest wheelie on ice.

One of the requests I got from the Reader Survey was to update y’all with the results of featured bike listings. I thought that was a good idea – hopefully you’ve seen in the past that I sometimes update a post with the final sale price, if I’m able to find it. But that requires you to go back in …

A couple of months ago, I met Danish Zaheer Rizvi, who got a degree in Transportation Design. He’s an avid motorcyclist who came up with a concept for an “adjustable” motorcycle. You’ve seen adjustable handlebars, adjustable footpegs, and maybe some other components, but nothing like this! With a design, one bike can feel like multiple.

Bonhams follows up their impressive Vegas offerings with an auction in Paris on February 4th. Come check out what’s on the block – it’s chock full of little Italian jewels…and one of the coolest custom Honda’s I’ve ever seen!

Last month I found a motorcyclist who needed a little bit of help through Kiva and a lot of you were excited to help out. I thought your support was fantastic, and am looking forward to making this a regular feature where we can help out fellow riders, particularly those who rely on bikes to bring in income. So read …

Last week, we looked at the results from Bonhams Las Vegas – today let’s look at Mecum’s. The high mark was a 1912 Henderson Four, which sold for $165,000. Over 700 bikes were offered over 3 days, totaling $9,054,965 in sales. They had a 80 percent sell-through rate and the average bike sold for over $17,000…about $5,000 more than last …

For many GS riders, this is Genesis. While there were four years of the R80G/S before the Paris-Dakar variant officially came out, and off-road race bikes far before the debut of the G/S (ISDT factory bikes such as these), this was the bike that put the GS on the map.

If you’re up near Portland, you’re going to need to check out The One Motorcycle Show in February.
